It fixes the default reflection for bridged random access collections, which usually have a `bridged` stored property.
Conforming to this protocol displays the "real" children of a bridged random access collection and not just `bridged`.
While I was using the new AccessUtils for a new optimization pass I discovered some areas for improvements. Also I found some bugs.
Changes:
* AccessBase: remove the unhealthy redundancy between `kind` and `baseAddress` types. Now AccessBase is single enum with the relevant base objects/addresses as payloads.
* AccessBase: for `global`, store the `GlobalValue` and not a `global_address` instruction, which is more accurate (because there can be multiple `global_addr`s for a single global variable)
* AccessBase: drop the support for function argument "pointers". The `pointer` is now always a `pointer_to_address` instruction. This also simplifies `PointerIdentification`: either it finds a matching `address_to_pointer` or it bails.
* AccessBase: improve `func isDistinct(from:)`. There are more possibilities to prove that two access bases do not alias.
* AccessBase: replace `var isUniquelyIdentified` with `var hasKnownStorageKind` which is more useful for aliasing checking.
* AccessPath: fix `func isDistinct(from:)`. `SmallProjectionPath.matches` is the wrong way to check if two expression paths may overlap. Instead use the new `SmallProjectionPath.mayOverlap`.
* AccessStoragePathWalker: rename `getAccessStorage` -> `visitAccessStorageRoots` and let it return false if it's not a class/reference AccessBase.
* add tests for `AccessPath.isDistinct(from:)`
* "merge" the `Path` and `State` in WalkUtils into a single `WalkingPath`. This makes it simpler for clients to configure a path and additional state variables. EscapeInfo now defines `EscapePath` which includes the projection path and EscapeInfo's specific state variables.
* Make the `WalkerCache` part of the WalkUtils, so that not all clients have to re-implement it.
* Rename `walkDownResults` -> `walkDownAllResults` and `walkUpOperands` -> `walkUpAllOperands` and make these functions client configurable.
It needs to return nil in case the callee argument is not really applied by the ApplySite.
This fixes a crash in EscapeInfo when handling "escaping-to" effects:
If the callee operand of an apply instruction is a `partial_apply` of a `function_ref`, the callee-analysis looks through the `partial_apply` and we get the referenced function as a callee.
In this case there are less apply arguments than callee arguments, because the `partial_apply` already "applies" some of the callee arguments.

`EscapeInfo` now conforms to the generic protocols defined in `WalkUtils`.
This simplifies the implementation a bit, since trivial instructions are handled
by `WalkUtils` and `EscapeInfo` only has to handle a subset of instructions
inherent to escape information.
Passes using `EscapeInfo` are updated accordingly to become visitors that
customize the `EscapeInfo` walk.
This fixes a dangling pointer issue when creating a `Swift.String` from `std::string`.
Also fixes a warning:
```
warning: variable 's' was never mutated; consider changing to 'let' constant
var s = SILBasicBlock_debugDescription(bridged)
~~~ ^
let
```

* split the PassUtils.swift file into PassContext.swift and Passes.swift
* rework `Builder` bridging allowing more insertion point variations, e.g. inserting at the end of a block.
* add Builder.create functions for more instructions
* add `PassContext.splitBlock`
* move SIL modification functions from PassContext to extensions of the relevant types (e.g. instructions).
* rename `Location.bridgedLocation` -> `Location.bridged`
and introduce the StringRef struct.
It's more efficient.
Also, rename the `HasName` protocol to `HasShortDescription`, which introduces the new requirement `shortDescription`. This is need because `name` now has `StringRef` type and not `String` anymore
Add a flag `analyzeAddresses` for distinguishing address vs value escape analysis. This is simpler than handling that in the visitUse/visitDef closures.
Also, fix a related bug, which let an address, which is escaping to a function, get unnoticed.
Reduces the number of _ContiguousArrayStorage metadata.
In order to support constant time bridging we do need to set the correct
metadata when we bridge to Objective-C. This is so that the type check
succeeds when bridging back from Objective-C to reuse the storage
instance rather than bridging the elements.
To support dynamically setting the `_ContiguousArrayStorage` element
type i needed to add support for optimizing `alloc_ref_dynamic`
throughout the optimizer.
Possible future improvements:
* Use different metadata such that we can disambiguate native Swift
classes during destruction -- allowing native release rather then unknown
release usage.
* Optimize the newly added semantic function

Store a list of argument effects in a function, which specify if and how arguments escape.
Such effects can be specified in the Swift source code (for details see docs/ReferenceGuides/UnderscoredAttributes.md) or derived in an optimization pass.
For details see the documentation in SwiftCompilerSources/Sources/SIL/Effects.swift.
The `SmallProjectionPath` represents a path of value or address projections.
It’s used for defining argument effects for functions and for the new escape analysis.
